Genuine advice to deal with jealousy
Can anyone answer without telling you to understand why you have the emotion? I understand why I’m jealous and I know it’s partially fomo. I’m jealous because the normal people around me are always going to the beach, theme parks, on vacations, or activities with friends/ family. They get continuous support and therapy weekly/ monthly. Their parents pay for everything and do anything for them. My parent tells me “that’s life” and all I can afford to do is work and home and clean. I can’t even save for anything nice I can barely afford my apartment while my friends parents or partners help pay for theirs. They do trips twice a month minimum, barely work, lots of friends, emotional support, and personal time. I work for 12-18hours a day and 6 days a week with basically nothing to show for it. I don’t even have time for anything. No emotional support, and no family support, and I always try my hardest to think of others and do things for others. I’m in my 20s that’s why all the people I know is around my age and gets lots of support. I’m also working towards a better life, I just got a scholarship for school and I’m about to go (this does not make me feel any better). Please help, I’m for real losing it. I would love to just be able to afford going to an activity with my friends a few times a year.
